00:11:25danielpbarron:What's known as "Internet Brigading" - the situation where a lot of people with no money and no practical importance complain loudly, as if anyone cares what the stupid poor say or think on any topic. << I had this happen to me over a particularly offensive tweet that got featured on some blog

00:57:35BingoBoingo:williamdunne: Don't take my word, fraudsters's up dig for the posts

00:59:34williamdunne:mircea_popescu: It would also be interesting to read your counter-complaint - I can only imagine it follows along the lines of your correspondence with the SEC, but with a few more insults thrown in for good measure

01:19:09felipelalli:thanks BingoBoingo! I'd like to read more the logs, it is my TODO list, I just can't priorize too much it in this moment of my life. Also my English is not good as I wish so it is a little hard to me understand everything in full and because that I became a little hesitant to participate.

01:20:07BingoBoingo:felipelalli: Well, the second best way to learn a language is reading stuff.

01:24:29felipelalli:BingoBoingo: True! Most of my reading is technical stuff, because I am a developer and I am totally focused in it now, learning and developing systems. But it is totally different than the "natural language". I lived 1 year in Australia, it helped me a lot, but I don't feel very comfortable yet.

01:33:37adlai:hebrew is an interesting language... quite regular, quite abstract. basically what you'd expect of a [re]constructed language that gets developed almost exclusively by either military slang or theological discourse

01:33:44*:BingoBoingo also thinks Prussia should have been surrendered as reparations for the purposes of Establishing a Jewish state after WWII

01:34:43adlai:well that would've sucked for all the prussians, although i guess they could've been deported to palestine, or uganda

01:39:05adlai:"The desalinated water will go south to (the Jordanian town of) Aqaba, while salt water will be pumped to the Dead Sea,"

01:39:07BingoBoingo:Not to mention the whole part where Canaan is near the center of the former Ottman empire ought to make the area less desirable... Especially after what happened to the Armenians which was still rather recent...

03:02:58williamdunne:"Shady ROMANIAN character opens up unregistered bitcoin options exchange (complete with HTML from 1993) on his personal website (which also hosts porn) and charges exorbitant fees just to join, while constantly accusing pretty much everyone else in the bitcoin community of being a scammer, and, along with his (possibly virtual) -PR lackey, acts like a loudmouthed douchebag ... but apperantly scams no

03:02:58williamdunne:Thank you Mircea for your services to the bitcoin community and for apparently being an honest and trustworthy entrepreneurial businessman. (Making you perhaps the only honest and trustworthy Romanian I know.)

03:02:58williamdunne:Moral of the story? It can be hard to judge people."

03:20:54williamdunne:I had (what I think) is an interesting idea the other day. Which could be rather educational for some people and entertaining for others

03:20:54williamdunne:A website focussed at schools/universities/whatever, that would allow you to login via Facebook and "anonymously" make posts about other attendees. And then several months into the operation, slowly begin revealing the names of the OPs - with the option of paying a (bitcoin) bribe to have it not revealed

03:20:54williamdunne:You just know that if you managed to get a few people on it they would all be dumb enough to sign on with facebook

03:22:00williamdunne:See if you can throw some police stations/prisons/parliaments in there

03:22:56mircea_popescu:you could just as well hire indonesians to write random shit. there's a bunch of "reviews" sites spamming this crap, there was one even discussed in the logs, made an entry about "the bitbet casino"

07:14:09mircea_popescu:;;later tell peterl if i recall corectly and you have hosting on the blogs.polimedia.us server with me, please change the ns to ns1.fraudsters.com ns2.fraudsters.com the old server is going down. the account has been already moved.

10:31:44[]bot:Bet placed: 4.25591684 BTC for No on "Yandex drop under Google before 2016" http://bitbet.us/bet/1134/ Odds: 17(Y):83(N) by coin, 17(Y):83(N) by weight. Total bet: 5.95291684 BTC. Current weight: 97,825.

11:34:11BingoBoingo:mircea_popescu: I'll deturd the pdf of the affidavit (probably should have earlier), in the context of the rest of the misconduct it accidentallied its way there isn't too plausible.

12:47:34ascii_modem:there are 'places' to which usg - while exists as such - simply will -not- go, and where the question can only be re: -which- specific set of sophistries will be made use of to avoid going there

12:48:49ascii_modem:consider - close to 100% of u.s. juridicial whatevers, have winblows in the loop

12:49:29ascii_modem:everything from the stenotype transcriber to the case law search to... you get the drift

12:54:23mats:can testify to experiencing such training -- has such gems as 'if you're intoxicated you can't consent', up to and including both parties effectively raping each other if they both happen to be inebriated

15:05:35danielpbarron:He's the only person on Twitter who is regularly posting links to that blog site. So the accounts must be connected somehow. Based on that account's Tweets, there's a lot of hostility towards women, feminists, "SJW's", and women related things.

15:06:11danielpbarron:actually can you not approve my previous comment for moderation. i just realized such a post could direct an entire hate mob at a twitter account and that's not responsible for me to do. This guy could just be a fan of the guy who posted the list. I don't have any solid proof, and even if there was, it would be a matter for the victims and the police only.

16:17:38ben_vulpes:<davout> [08:21] so TIL that testnet doesn't behave like main net and will allow blocks of diff 1 to be mined whenever it "has been too long" between two blocks << this testnet stuff is bullhockey

20:24:33danielpbarron:The creator of this list claims that he is motivated by the altruistic goal of pressuring Bitlove (the creators of Fetlife) into implementing security fixes to prevent these sort of attacks happening in the future. Unfortunately, the so-called "meat" advertised by the list is comprised exclusively of female-identifying members under the age of 30.

20:25:40danielpbarron:The information has been curated for and advertised to an audience of predominantly cis male sexual predators, that now have a well-laid out database of disproportionately vulnerable and inexperienced potential victims who may be unlikely to expose their alternative lifestyle by going to the police or perusing other means of defense.
